Topic: Ellesby Ware? where from please?

[terrim]

Can someone please tell me what country of origin Ellesby Ware is? I have a pair of vases that look Japanese but have this sticker.

Hi, welcome to the GMB!  Any chance of some pics of the vases + label?  It might be a retailer/importer rather than manufacturer.

[terrim]

yes I have pics but I couldn't work out how to put them on here. They seem to be too big.

Photos need to be 125kb or less in size, I find that will equate to an image of about 600 x 400 pixels, you can add four photos per post. Some help on posting photos here: http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,6522.0.html

If you have difficulty with it, reply to this topic and ask for help.

There's a handy online image resizer which usually gets pics below our limits if you're struggling. Set the sizes to 700 pixels and leave at normal, and see what happens. Do shout if you get stuck - we can always help with resizing and uploading - and welcome to to the board. http://www.imageoptimizer.net/Home.aspx

Hi all I've been a bit busy. I think I have this worked out so I am going to have a go. LOL

[Anne]

No, sorry, they are too small to see the detail. You need to make the longest size around 700 pixels, the board will auto-create thumbnails for you so you don't need to do that.

I just realised I forgot to include the link to the online image resizer in my last post too (sorry, I was a bit tired!) so have added it now in case you need it. http://www.imageoptimizer.net/Home.aspx

Anne, can I just put a link to the photobucket thumbnail?

[Anne]

You can but we really prefer to have the images on the board for future reference - we have many threads which have lost their usefulness after remotely linked images have been removed. I can lift a copy of your image from Photobucket link and add it here for you if that helps?

[terrim]

Anne thank you, I will include thumbnails from photobucket and you can use them as you see fit. I do appreciate why you need to keep the photos and would love to be able to do it your way but my brain doesn't work well lately.
 I hope this works and it is what you meant

Mod: html code removed as it doesn't work on the board, links left in place, and images added directly to the board for reference as above.
